Polestar is Preparing to Firm Up its Lineup with Fresh Models

Polestar is gearing up to expand its lineup with several new models, one of which has already made its debut. The Polestar 3 is expected to arrive in October, and it will be followed by the exciting Polestar 5 and a prototype version of that car. The Polestar 5 is a sleek electric grand touring sedan, and it's setting its sights on vehicles like the Tesla Model S, Porsche Taycan, and Audi e-tron GT.

The Polestar 5 should have no problem competing with these established players, thanks to its high output front motor and rear motor setup. This configuration runs on an 800-volt architecture, which should enable quick charging. The car is expected to produce north of 880 horsepower and over 660 pound-feet of torque, making it a formidable opponent in the electric grand touring segment.

Design Direction from the Precept Concept

The exterior style of the Polestar 5 takes clear design direction from the excellent Precept concept, which was showcased in person by the reviewer just a few months prior. The reviewer has recently moved to a new home in Orange County, California, and has come to Laguna Beach to sample Polestar's new digs, which are close to the coast and Pacific Coast Highway. Although the review of the Polestar Precip is not mentioned here, it will be far cooler to see what a production-spec Polestar 5 can really do.

Polestar's Current Lineup

Polestar is building great vehicles right now, but its lineup is small. The Polestar 1 is a sort of halo flagship machine, although it's not fully electric. The Polestar 2 is a nice entry point for the brand at the moment, but Polestar 3 and 4 should prove to be more useful volume-focused machines. Both are crossovers, which will provide a more practical and versatile option for customers.

The Arrival of Polestar 5

When Polestar 5 lands, it should replace the 1 as the true flagship of the family. With its impressive specs sheet, it should also be one heck of a thing to drive beyond numbers. Polestar does an excellent job on the design side, and we can expect great things in terms of exterior style and interior space. The reviewer mentions that Polestar's parent company, Volvo, makes simple yet stylish decisions with respect to interior design, which suggests that Polestar 5 will follow suit.

A Prototype Rips Up the Hill at Goodwood Festival of Speed

A prototype version of the Polestar 5 recently ripped up the hill at the Goodwood Festival of Speed based on the Polestar Precept concept. This suggests that the production-spec Polestar 5 will be just as impressive, if not more so.

The Arrival Timeline

Polestar 3 is expected to arrive later this year, followed by Polestar 4 in 2023 and then Polestar 5 sometime in 2024. Although that's quite a ways away, the reviewer is already excited to learn more about the Polestar 5 and see it in action.
